Live Nation regret to announce that Iron’s Maiden second show in LA on September 26 has had to be rescheduled to September 27. We regret to inform fans that due to restrictions on simultaneous events at Exposition Park, we have been forced to move the Iron Maiden show scheduled for Saturday, September 26 at BMO Stadium to Sunday, September 27.

This is an unprecedented circumstance and is unfortunately entirely outside of either our or the band’s control. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause and appreciate your understanding as we comply with venue and city regulations.
The Friday, September 25 performance at BMO Stadium remains unchanged. All tickets purchased for Saturday, September 26 will be honored for the rescheduled show on Sunday, September 27. Emails have been sent to ticket holders with further details.
We are extremely sorry for the disruption and thank you for your continued support.
